People posting political beliefs and views on facebook... One thing that has been proven over and over and over and over, people do not change their political views based on anything that someone posts on facebook. These posts are really only meant for one thing, poking at others who don't see things your way... I hate seeing anything politics related, and have unfollowed a lot of people based on that alone. I don't want to know your views, I don't want to see any slanted videos or articles. I have family who have gotten into verbal battles all because of facebook posts. I know of instances where respect has been lost for family members, and that will never be fixed. I don't understand it myself, but I am 52, and i truly don't care what your views are, it won't effect how I feel about someone. Younger people have different attitudes about such matters, and they are not afraid to tell you your views are wrong, and they are also quick to view you as less than them if you do not agree with their thoughts and feelings. I have witnessed this with close family members and it is just horrible. Everyone is so sensitive these days, and seem unable to handle the fact that not everyone agrees on such topics. Always blows into nonsense, and no one learns, it just continues. I prefer to NOT speak about political views with family members, but not everyone feels like I do. Playing referee and peacekeeper at family gatherings sucks. All I want is for everyone to do as I do, not bring up politics in any form, but that never happens, and hurt feelings are always the result. I have conservatives and liberals in my family, and none of them can just shut their mouths. I hate it. Want to isolate yourself from friends and family, post political views on facebook. Want to cause hurt and resentment with friends and family, post political views on facebook. Want to make yourself look like a total ass to friends and family, post political views on facebook. I could go on and on...
